removing array element in javascript code example

Example 1: remove a particular element from array

Example 3: how to remove element from array in javascript

/* there are 3 ways to do so
1) pop(), which removes the last element
2) shift(), which removes the first element
3) splice(), which removes any element with a specified index.
of these only splice() takes parameters. the first parameter it takes is the
index of the element to be removed, an integer. the second is the number of 
elements to be removed, again integer. the third and fourth etc. are optional,
which is to be used if you want to replace them. Example: */
let numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
numbers.pop(); // removes 5
numbers.shift(); // removes 1
let threeIndex = numbers.indexOf(3); // used for long arrays
numbers.splice(threeIndex, 1); // without replacement
numbers.splice(threeIndex, 1, 7) // 3 will now be replaced by 7

Example 4: how to delete element in list javascript

//using filter method
let itemsToBeRemoved = ["Sunday", "Monday"]
var filteredArray = myArray.filter(item => !itemsToBeRemoved.includes(item))

Example 5: javascript remove element from array

const cars = ['farrari', 'Ice Cream'/* It is not an car */, 'tata', 'BMW']

//to remove a specific element
